"Any fool can know. The point is to understand." - Albert Einstein

Burghardt DuBois, the great black educator, sociologist, and historian upon completion of studies at Fisk, Harvard and the University of Berlin, was convinced that change in the condition of the American black could be effected by careful scientific investigations into the truth about the blacks in America so he proceeded. His research was flawless and his graphs and charts impeccable. After waiting several years and hearing not the slightest stir of reform, Dr. DuBois had to accept the truth about truth. Which is, "It being available does not mean it will be appropriated, discovered and deployed."
The answer is available; the truth is discoverable, if only you will be disciplined to seek it. It was Arthur Clarke that said "For every man, education should be a process which continues all his life. We have to abandon, as swiftly as possible, the idea that schooling is something restricted to youth. How can it be, in a world where half the things a man knows at 20 are no longer true at 40 - and half the things he knows at 40 hadn't been discovered when he was 20?" Friends when all avenues have been exhausted still remember that all answer lies with God who reveals all things, combine both and you will be unstoppable in 2015.
